Anna Maria Island, FL Clean Up After Hurricanes Helene & Milton

[@frankdupps9794]

Thank you both so much for the update. We've had a house on Holmes beach since 1993 and we've never had this much damage in those 31 years. We are rebuilding and we certainly appreciate all the information you given and love you've shown for our little island in your video. Also, thank you providing the bar code for the R & R Pier, as I donated to its reconstruction. Merry Christmas and Happy (Better) New Year!

Thank you for your donation to help rebuild the pier. And we appreciate your kind words about the video. We are glad that you, as someone who has lived there, being kind and understanding, and persevering through the storms. We love this entire area.

We've been to AMI a couple of times now, and we've adjusted our plans a bit on our next trip down so we can spend a little time there as well. It's still a beautiful area, and it's looking better each time there's a new video. Thanks for sharing....and Merry Christmas!

@genehinders9639 When you get down to the area, we hope everything is pretty much back to normal by then. It's getting there.

Looks like things are slowly but surely getting back to normal.

[@NCMemoryMakers]

Yes. We pray that they get completely back to normal soon.

So happy we only deal with snow storms and not hurricanes where I live...Great place to visit though.

[@NCMemoryMakers]

It sure is a nice place to visit!

I don’t see how they build those piers back as they are so far out in the water 💧 Takes special construction crews to be able to handle such a large job. So sorry for them and all others trying to get their lives back together 🙏🏻❤️

[@NCMemoryMakers]

I've often wondered how that's done, as well. Getting the poles to set firm in sand that's always shifting.

Very sad 😢 half pier gone. 💔🙏🏻

[@NCMemoryMakers]

@amberbryant8141 The hurricane did a lot of damage there, sadly.
